Re: ideas for a personal cluster with gta04
Hi, the openbmap project proposes a Web API for getting location, based on the GSM data or WiFi. The data is available for offline use too. http://openbmap.org/api/openbmap_api.php5 Your example about navit, has been a target use case for the project for a long time ;-) (speeding up the GPS fix). The server side which used to be closed source has been released as open source, and the server is currently being transmitted to a new maintainer, after Nick decided to decrease activity on the project.

Geoclue[1] is an open location system that is supposed to agregate data from multiple sources including gps. AFAIK there isn't an openbmap plugin for it yet. Gsmloc is mentioned for cell tower triangulation but a cursory look suggests it's no longer active.
